School of Ministry Project in Asia: 2016-2018

I am excited to share with you that we are beginning 2 new ministry training institutes, one in Nepal and one in the Philippines. Our purpose is to provide training for existing pastors and for new pastors, especially those who want to be involved in planting churches in new, unreached areas.

NEPAL. Our new ministry training center in Nepal has already begun this month with 12 Pastors. The entire program will last two years, including 18 months of supervised experience in church planting. Part of the program will be classroom instruction, but the majority of it will be practical experience in evangelism, discipleship andplanting in new villages.

PHILIPPINES. Preliminary work has been done for beginning our ministry training institute in western Samar, Philippines.

Project Launch. Susan Fowler, Mike Lankford and I will travel to the Philippines July 6-18 to meet with Pastors and inaugurate our training institute in western Samar. This will be the first ministry training Institute of any kind in that region of the Philippines. Already we have 40 pastors and leaders signed up for the school.

Course Materials. Our curriculum will be provided by ISOM (International School of Ministry) based in California. ISOM is a video-based curriculum, but it has some of the best teachers in the world, including Jack Hayford, Joyce Meyer, Larry Stockstill and Rinehart Bonke. In 18 months, the students will earn an internationally recognized Associate Degree in Biblical Studies.
